heavy is the weight

Singer:memphis may fire

one step forward and two steps back

nothing good ever comes easy

i gave it all and got a knife in my back

should have known the ones i trusted would leave me

they only see what they wanna see

heavy is the weight that i hold

the weight that i hold

i carry it cause it's all that i know

this is all that i know

the pressure on me

the pressure to be

true to who i am

heavy is the weight

the weight that i hold

one life one chance

it's all i have

wouldn't matter if the whole world hated me

so i move on

forget the the past

and let them go back to thinking they made me

they only see what they wanna see

heavy is the weight that i hold

the weight that i hold

i carry it cause it's all that i know

this is all that i know

the pressure on me

the pressure to be

true to who i am

heavy is the weight

the weight that i hold

heavy is a weight

i don't wanna wait

for them all to be good when

i want to be great

yeah

i know about pressure. yeah

i know about stressin'

worried if i'll lose everything invested

and i know about workin' when i'm hardly rested

like am i in tune with what i'm destined for?

been carrying this weight for so long

didn't even notice that my back was so strong

i can probably put a boat on it with no problem

the show must go on

heavy is the weight that i hold

the weight that i hold

i carry it cause it's all that i know

this is all that i know

the pressure on me

the pressure to be

true to who i am

heavy is the weight

the weight that i hold

heavy is the weight that i hold

the weight that i hold

i carry it cause it's all that i know

this is all that i know

the pressure on me

the pressure to be

true to who i am

heavy is the weight

heavy is the weight

the weight that i hold
